Gameplay

At the heart of the game is building a permanently viable Martian colony: power, oxygen, water, food, transport routes and domes all have to work together, while research unlocks new technologies and buildings. The Relaunched edition brings over the previous major expansions and their systems, including terraforming, rival colonies, underground expeditions, trains and additional production mechanics.

Martian Assembly

The Martian Assembly adds a lasting endgame system for the social development of the colony. Players pass laws, respond to differing interests and can lead Mars over the long term towards independence from Earth. The Mission Sponsor Interplanetary Codex develops this layer further with its own tools and a Law Office.
